Maple Sawdust Fuel Pucks from China
Maple sawdust fuel pucks are round, puck-shaped agglomerated wood waste made from maple sawdust from sawmill operations, compressed for fireplace use. Their unique form represents 'similar forms' of agglomerated wood waste, placing them under tariff item 4401.39.00 as 'other'. They burn cleanly with high BTU output, making them an efficient heating fuel.

Import Tips
• Clearly describe the product as 'puck-shaped' in customs documentation to distinguish it from pellets or briquettes
• Ensure the sawdust is from wood processing waste, not treated wood, to avoid regulatory issues
• Keep records of the compression process to demonstrate it is agglomerated waste, not a manufactured article
